This is a sample diet for a person who is looking to build some muscle and burn some fat. The calories and meal times may VARY based on your schedule and nutrition needs, but try to eat every 2.5 to 3 hours. Many of us have hectic schedules and feel as if we are destined to just be out of shape forever, but my friend this is not the case. It is actually very simple to achieve a dream body, provided you follow the correct steps.

The first step is preparation. In order to be successful you must prepare for anything, so I always advise people to spend a few hours on a lazy Sunday afternoon and prepare all of their food for the workweek, put it into tupperware containers as individual meals and freeze it.

Then you would just take a days worth of food with you to work and you will not have to worry about being tempted to go to the Sonic Drive Thru and ruin all of the hard work that you just put in the night before at the gym!

Here is a sample diet that I have used with some success to lower my body fat, get ripped fast, and keep my six pack abs on point. You may modify it to suit your needs.
